Summary
"This is the story of controversial development proposals and planning decisions, of power struggles between goven=rnement and Council, of developers versus unions, of Sydney's role in a global economy, and of the city's tallest residential tower emerging from its ever largest hole in the ground. It is a story that epitomises the history of Sydney itself." -- back cover
